Disco Phase I – what I planned and what I did.

Underbody protection.   In the end I went for the Qt guards front and rear.  The others just seemed too wimpy.

Steering Guard.   Southdown Steering Guard fitted.  Still working on best recovery options.

Tank Guard and rear recovery point is proving to be a real problem.  Still.

Snorkel.  Safari. Easy decision.  And looking good.

Winch is looking good in the Bearmach discrete mount kit.  I still need a good strong recovery point, and I’m thinking of drilling the steering guard to add a couple of swivels.

I also added some privacy screens to the windows, a roof rack and some bridging ladders.  Given the lack of lift and agressive tyres right now, these seemed worthwhile.

So what next?

Tyres: will be upgraded to ATs in axle pairs as the existing ones wear or otherwise need replacing.  And the chrome side steps, which look nice, will get replaced with tree sliders if and when they get damaged.

    Hi Andy:

    Wanted to let you know I added your blog to my directory of Land Rover related blogs at http://www.landrovergeeks.com/blogs

    My site is fairly new, only since last October, but already I think it has a lot to offer the Land Rover enthusiast.

    Perhaps you will consider adding LandRoverGeeks.com to your blogroll? If so, I would sincerely appreciate it..

    Thanks,
    Dave
